Patrick Delehanty

I’m Patrick Delehanty, an entrepreneur, engineer, and veteran with a passion for turning challenges into opportunities. Growing up in Coweta, Oklahoma, in a family of entrepreneurs, I learned early the value of hard work and innovation. These lessons shaped my career, from serving as a Civil Engineer in the U.S. Air Force to founding and operating businesses that span land development, federal contracting, advanced manufacturing, and luxury home construction.

My educational journey started at Oklahoma State University, where I earned dual Bachelor of Science degrees in Mechanical Engineering Technology and Business Administration. Later, I pursued a Master of Science in Engineering and Technology Management from Northcentral University, which deepened my understanding of how to lead complex projects and teams.

As the founder of Delco Holdings, LLC, and several other ventures, I’ve had the privilege of managing large-scale developments, securing multi-million-dollar contracts, and designing innovative products used by organizations like the Department of Defense and leading private companies. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I pivoted one of my companies to provide essential personal protective equipment, generating over $30 million in revenue and maintaining a 100% delivery rate.

Beyond my work, I’m dedicated to giving back to my community through philanthropy. I believe in the power of persistence, adaptability, and faith—not just as business principles but as ways to create meaningful impact. Whether it’s building neighborhoods, creating jobs, or supporting youth programs, my goal is to leave every venture better than I found it.
